Song of the Day: Farewell, My Summer Love, words and music by Keni St. Lewis, was recorded by Michael Jackson in 1973, and released in 1984 as the title single from a Motown compilation album. This Top 40 hit capitalized on “Thriller“, which was released in November 1982 and went on to become the all-time best selling album worldwide, topping the Billboard Hot 200 Album chart for 37 weeks as the #1 album for two consecutive years (1983-1984). On this date in 1958, Michael Jackson was born. Check out the single version and a dance remix of this summer song [YouTube links].
